PATRICK CHRISTIAN,

                    Plaintiff - Appellant,

             v.

COMMONWEALTH STATE OF VIRGINIA,

                    Defendant - Appellee.



Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
Richmond. Henry E. Hudson, District Judge. (3:17-cv-00536-HEH)


Submitted: November 21, 2017                                Decided: November 27, 2017


Before WYNN and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.


Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Patrick O. Christian, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

      Patrick Christian appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983

(2012) complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). We have reviewed the record

and find that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma

pauperis and dismiss the appeal for the reasons stated by the district court. Christian v.

Virginia, No. 3:17-cv-00536-HEH (E.D. Va. Aug. 11, 2017). We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                             DISMISSED
